Did you ever get this to work? I was able to get jboss to authenticate via ldap. I have not been able to get ldaps to work.

Everything I read talks about making a keystore to house the certs. The SSL LDAP (Active Directory) server I am hitting is not on my local box. I guess I don't understand fundamentally why I need to setup a keystore other than to hold the public key of my ldap server.

Any help advice or jboss ldaps links would be appreciated.
